Definitions
- the present invention relates to a fluid product distribution assembly as may be encountered in the field of perfumery, cosmetics or even pharmacy.
- perfumery and cosmetics there are distributors or distribution sets which are in reality samples so that the consumer can become aware of the product for advertising purposes. These samples are generally distributed free of charge.
- a number of these samples are included in magazines, and it is not uncommon to find three, four or five samples in one magazine. For this, the samples must have a very reduced thickness so as not to significantly increase the thickness of the magazine.
- magazines must be able to be stored in the form of a vertical stack, and the samples included inside must not destabilize the magazine stack. To place the sample in the magazine, it is common to use machines in which the samples are first placed vertically in a feed rack.
- the sample located at the bottom of the rack is grabbed by a suction cup system then by a system of pliers which take the sample to a gluing station and finally to a pressing station to stick it on a page of the magazine.
- a suction cup system In order to allow this operation of placing samples in magazines, it is necessary to be able to enter them by means of a suction cup system.
- the suction cup system can only operate effectively on a substantially flat surface for reasons which are specific to the suction cup technique. Indeed, a suction cup cannot be applied on a completely irregular surface.
- the samples have a standard shape, preferably square or rectangular so as not to hinder their positioning and their movement inside the rack and their gripping by the suction cup system and the subsequent system of pliers.
- Such dispensing assemblies for sample use generally comprise —n-dispenser— of fluid product defining a reservoir of fluid product.
- n-dispenser of fluid product defining a reservoir of fluid product.
- the thickness of the tank is significant.
- the reservoir can also be produced using two flexible sheets. This considerably reduces the thickness of the reservoir, but then the flatness of the faces of the reservoir cannot be guaranteed.
- any fluid dispenser includes a dispensing orifice, and in the case of samples, this dispensing orifice is often closed by a removable closure member which the consumer tears off, detaches or folds up to unmask the orifice. of distribution. It is important that the removable closure member cannot be a hindrance in feeding the samples using a machine equipped with a suction cup and gripper system. In other words, the removable closure member, while remaining accessible, must not be able to disturb the operation of a gripping and sample fixing machine in magazines.
- the present invention provides a fluid product distribution assembly characterized in that it comprises:
- a fluid dispenser defining a substantially flat body provided with a dispensing orifice and a removable obturation member suitable for closing the dispensing orifice, and -
- a packaging enveloping the body of the dispenser and forming an opening part in which is housed the removable closure member so that it can be grasped to remove it from the body and thus unmask the dispensing orifice.
- the body of the dispenser which defines the fluid reservoir is thus covered by the packaging and the removable closure member is protected in the opening part so that it is almost impossible for it to constitute a troublesome or bulky element during manipulation of the whole.
- the removable closure member can only be very difficult to accidentally actuate in its opening part.
- the outer walls of the packaging mask the body, which although noticeably flat, is not perfectly flat. Thanks to this conditioning, at least one flat face is obtained, and the removable closure member is protected.
- the opening part comprises a notch in which the removable closure member is housed in a visible manner.
- the packaging here forms a sort of cut-out housing in which the removable closure member extends which is therefore visible and directly graspable.
- the opening part at least partially envelops the removable closure member.
- the opening part is delimited by at least one line of least resistance so that the opening part is detachable from the rest of the packaging with the removable closure member.
- the opening part is delimited by at least one cutout. The opening part then covers the removable closure member which is no longer necessarily entirely visible. To remove it, simply grasp the opening part and tear it off with the removable closure member.
- the packaging comprises a support sheet and a flap sheet, the dispenser being fixed to the support sheet and the flap sheet is fixed to the support sheet on their peripheries.
- the support sheet can advantageously be more rigid than the distributor body, so that it will not undergo deformation due to the fixing of the body on its internal face.
- the support and flap sheets will only be slightly curved due to the inclusion of the substantially flat body of the dispenser.
- the sheets are substantially flat and able to be gripped using a suction cup system.
- the flatness of at least one of the two sheets allows easy affixing of indications such as the brand, the composition and the method of use of the product.
- the support and flap sheets are formed in one piece and folded along one side.
- the notch is located on this side.
- the removable shutter member is fully inscribed in the opening part.
- the removable closure member comprises a free edge which extends substantially in alignment with the junction side.
- the dispensing orifice is located on an edge of the opening part, for example at the bottom of the notch or on the line of least resistance.
- the body defines an actuating wall on which is pressed to expel fluid product through the dispensing orifice, said actuating wall being actuable through the packaging.
- the opening part is formed by a respective cut, and advantageously identical, of the support and flap sheets, the cutouts coming to overlap when the flap sheet is attached to the support sheet.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a fluid dispenser assembly according to a first form of realization of the invention with the packaging during assembly,
- - Figure 2 is a plan view of a fluid dispenser used in the dispensing assembly of the present invention
- - Figure 3 is a perspective view of a dispensing assembly according to the invention in finished state
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a distribution assembly according to a second embodiment of the invention during assembly
- - Figure 5 is a view of the assembly of Figure 4 in the state finished on a lower scale
- Figure 6 is a view similar to Figure 5 with the opening portion and the removable closure member removed.
- the fluid dispenser assembly of the invention comprises two constituent elements, namely a fluid dispenser 1 and a package 2.
- the dispenser 1 can for example be identical to that described in the document FR 2 791 645 incorporated here for reference.
- the dispenser described in this document can be identical to that shown in FIG. 2.
- the dispenser 1 comprises a body 10 made from one or two sheets 11,
- the body 10 thus defines a reservoir 16 containing a small amount of fluid.
- a support piece 13 is fixed, advantageously by heat-sealing between the two sheets 11 and 12. This piece 13 serves as a support for a piece of porous material 14 capable of being soaked with fluid product.
- the piece of porous material 14 extends from the support piece 13 inside the tank 16, but communicates with its end fixed to the support piece 13 with a dispensing orifice 17.
- a spring element 15 is disposed inside the tank 16.
- the dispenser 1 also comprises a removable closure member 18 which closes or masks the dispensing orifice 17.
- the characteristic of this dispenser described in document FR 2 791 645 is that the spring element 15 is constrained as much as possible so as to define a minimum reservoir volume as long as the removable closure member 18 is not removed from the body 10. This guarantees that the body 10 of the dispenser has a substantially shaped flat that does not exceed two millimeters.
- the removable closure member 18 is removed, air can enter the reservoir 16 through the dispensing orifice 17 and the piece of porous material 4.
- the reservoir 16 then contains a small amount of fluid and a large amount of air which allows a distribution of the biphasic type through the piece of porous material and the dispensing orifice 17. This guarantees a very good quality of spraying.
- the fluid dispenser can also be a powder or more generally a pulverulent material.
- the piece of porous material 4 can be omitted.
- the distribution assembly also comprises a packaging 2 which at least partially envelops the body 10 of the distributor 1.
- the packaging 2 can be produced from two sheets 21 and 25 between which the body 10 of the distributor 1 is disposed.
- the packaging can also be made from a single sheet folded over itself along a fold which will form a straight junction side 20.
- the sheet or sheets can be made of plastic, metal, paper, cardboard , or from a complex film laminated from metal and plastic.
- the dimensions of the sheets are greater than the dimensions of the body 10 of the dispenser 1 so that the body 10 of the dispenser can be disposed between the sheets without exceeding them.
- one of the two sheets 25 serves as a support sheet on which the body 10 of the dispenser is advantageously fixed by gluing.
- the face 11 of the body 10 can be glued to the support sheet 25.
- the other sheet 21 is then folded over the sheet of support 25 so as to cover the body 10 of the dispenser.
- the flap sheet 21 is glued to the support sheet 25 on their respective peripheries 22, 26 with the exception of the side 20 where the two sheets are interconnected. The circumference of the packaging is thus perfectly flat and thin.
- the body 10 of the dispenser is substantially flat (of the order of 2 mm)
- the support sheets 25 and flap 21 remain relatively flat, or at least with a slight curvature.
- An extremely flat distribution assembly is thus obtained with substantially flat faces.
- the main thing is that at least one of the two faces of the dispensing assembly is substantially planar. But in practice, with a dispenser as described above, the two faces of the dispensing assembly are substantially flat.
- the removable closure member is housed in an opening part (24, 28; 240, 280) formed by the packaging (2).
- the removable closure member 18 is housed in a notch which is formed by a window cut out at the junction of the two sheets, that is to say on the side 20: thus, this notch comprises a window part 24 formed by the flap sheet 21 and another window part 28 formed by the support sheet 25.
- the window is transformed into a notch cut on the side 20, as can be seen in FIG. 3.
- the removable obturation member 18 is advantageously entirely inscribed in the notch 24, 28 and preferably its end edge free 182 is located substantially in alignment with the side 20.
- the dispensing orifice 17 formed by the support piece 13 of the body 10 is advantageously located at the bottom of the notch 24, 28.
- the member d 'obturati on removable 18 in this indentation, it is perfectly protected and is not likely to interfere or be accidentally torn off.
- the distribution assembly retains an almost perfectly rectangular or square configuration, since the removable closure member comes practically complete or fill in the notch formed by packaging 2.
- the removable closure member 18 is wrapped in an opening part formed by the sheets 21 and 25. More specifically, the sheets 21 and 25 respectively define two flaps 240, 280 which are superimposed when the flap sheet 21 has been folded over the support sheet 25. These flaps 240, 280 are here partially delimited by lines of least resistance 241, 281 and cutouts 248.
- the two superimposed flaps 240, 280 form a tab enclosing the removable closure member and delimited by the cutouts 248 folded back on themselves and the superimposed breaking lines 241, 281.
- the opening portion is located on the side 20, so that the flaps 240, 280 are contiguous and integral.
- the opening part on another side of the packaging 2. To use this dispensing assembly, the user grasps the tab forming the opening part and detaches it along the rupture line, removing thus at the same time the removable closure member that it envelops.
- a distribution assembly of the invention it is very easy to store it in a supply rack for a machine having a suction cup system for gripping it and placing it in a magazine.
- the distribution assembly shown in the drawings has a rectangular or square shape, one can imagine other simple geometric shapes such as polygonal, round, oval or elliptical.
- One of the principles of the invention resides in the fact that the assembly has at least one substantially planar face and / or an opening portion in which the removable closure member is housed.
